The goal is not to get a “starter” by trading picks. The goal is to get a top end player. Quinnen Williams for example - All Pro caliber. The % chance of a team drafting one of those lowers your numbers drastically.

Jets do something smart, for a change. Moral: There are some teams you simply don’t do business with. Period. I hope Beane at least learned this lesson (I honestly think he did and we never see another trade with KC during Allen’s tenure).

I have simply come to terms with the fact that Beane and I don’t value draft picks the same. I see them as lottery tickets. I would rather trade a lottery ticket for a known commodity, than use the lottery ticket. I would rather cash in a 1 in a million chance at a billion dollars, for a guaranteed $100,000. He doesn’t agree, and that sucks in my opinion, but it is what it is.

Beane really loves his draft picks

Agreed - what in the world were the Colts thinking? Sauce is overhyped.

This ^. There really wasn’t a bad decision in that spot and each have close to equal odds of winning. If we are going to nitpick anything, let’s talk about timeouts. I am tired of seeing him call timeouts on defense before big 3rd and 4th down plays. I understand that he wants to set up the perfect defense and get his team ready, but he doesn’t seem to consider that the opposing team receives that SAME ADVANTAGE when you call a timeout. The 4th and 17 timeout was infuriating. You have them on the ropes and you bailed them out.

Jakobi would be dissapointng

Agreed. That was a very poor moment to call a timeout.

Was waiting for someone to say this. Yes.

Same. It also bugs me that he had no reaction after that sweet TD flip by Allen. Everyone else in the booth was excited except for him. Kinda sums up his radio style too.

By far his best game ever.

Good point.

Completely different play and the safety is not in the same place. The safety in the Chiefs game had little chance at the ball in this situation - which is why Allen threw it. The throw YOU wanted Allen to make, had the safety BAITING Allen to throw it. The throw you wanted Allen to make, was an INT. You had no idea what you were talking about on that play and several people in that thread pointed that out to you.

It typically takes forming the letter “N” following by a close by “o”
